Chapter 98
In the lobby of the Governor's Mansion in Shazhou, King Jianning personally ascended to the hall to hear the case.

The monks of Leiyin Temple were taken over by the player, the presiding officer Jihu was captured by the player in the meditation room, and all the leaders of the temple were also arrested without slipping through the net.

The arsenal was burned, and the monks were not able to put on their armor, and were directly chopped down by the players who rushed in.

The leaders of the temple scattered in a rush, and a few escaped down the mountain by chance, but they saw the cold barbed wire.

Doulu Army Captain Wang ordered a round of salvos, and the archers who had already ambushed outside the barbed wire shot arrows one after another, shooting all the monks who were trying to climb the barbed wire to death.

This group of monks oppressed the tenants on weekdays, but they had never seen such a bloody and cruel scene. They knelt down and begged for mercy.

Soma, who was in the Buddhist scripture cave in the back mountain, saw that things were not going well, and planned to escape across the back mountain.

But Li Daoyuan, who is familiar with the terrain, has already led the players to defend the back mountain, and directly knocked Soma unconscious with a stick.

Now the old monk Jihu is kneeling on the ground, Soma is kneeling beside him, and all the monks below the prison temple are kneeling behind them.

Jihu Monk Li Yan once saw him when he entered the city. At that time, he was wearing a purple-red cassock, with white eyebrows and white beard, and he looked like an eminent monk.

But at this time most of his beard was burned off, half of his eyebrows were also burned off, and his cassock was covered with mud and blood.

Although he looked embarrassed, Ji Hu closed his eyes and knelt straight on the ground.

In contrast, Soma looked much more cowardly. He knelt on the ground and trembled, completely lacking the momentum he had during the secret meeting of the group of monks.

Shang Bo finished reading the lawsuit, and asked the monks kneeling on the ground: "Collaborating with Tubo, plotting to assassinate the imperial court and appointing the county king, can you be convicted?"

Soma spoke fluent Chinese and said, "I'm wronged! I'm a Tubo businessman, and I'm staying in Leiyin Temple. It's not a Tubo secret at all!"

The prison temple of Leiyin Temple also said: "Your Highness, you are wronged! We wait for the monks to eat fast and chant Buddha in the temple every day, praying for the good weather of the Tang Dynasty. How could we commit such a serious crime as treason?"

Shang Bo said: "Sophistry! You are hiding the armor in the warehouse, which is already a serious crime of treason!"

Now Soma said again: "It's wrong! This is what they did, what does it have to do with me?"

The prison temple glared at Soma, but held back his words.

At this time, Cui Tao took out a wooden slip, showed it in front of Soma and asked, "Is this wooden slip yours?"

What was written on the wooden slips was in Tubo script, and it was a document written by Soma to his host Dalun Shang Qixin'er.

Soma's heart skipped a beat, but he calmed down instantly.

The Baojie script used by Asuka is a very special "Zhuwen" in Tubo script. This is a script that only nobles, priests and monks can master, and it is very different from ordinary Tubo script.

There are quite a few Tubo businessmen in Shazhou, and it is not difficult to find a few who know the Tubo language, but there must be no one who knows this "Zhuwen"!

Soma said confidently: "My lord, this is my letter from home to report my safety."

Soma didn't expect that the official of the county king's mansion actually read it out.

Although the pronunciation is a bit strange, why can this little official understand Zhu Wen?
Cui Tao sneered and said: "This is a letter of victory for Shang Qixin'er, the host. If you translate it, it means that King Jianning has been captured and the city of Shazhou has been defrauded, and the Tubo army should rush into Shazhou. I'm right. ?"

Soma fell to the ground directly. He really couldn't figure it out. Do you need to be so knowledgeable as an official of the palace?

This is a wish text that only Tubo nobles and priests can understand!

A smile appeared on the corner of Cui Tao's mouth, isn't it just a mere wish?I don't understand, can't my tutor understand?
Cui Tao's mentor is a master in the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the study of the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties naturally cannot avoid the history of Tubo.

Cui Tao's mentor also presided over the excavation of wooden slips in Tubo, and he is an authority in the study of Tubo writing.

When Cui Tao held this wooden slip, the instructor stood up excitedly, this is a standard format!A complete wooden slip of victory!
Tubo script is a spelling script, which was formed during the Songtsen Gampo period, and was influenced by Sanskrit, Chinese, and plateau Zhang Zhungwen at the same time.

Zhu Wen is an encrypted Tubo text, which is specially used to convey military information and pray and sacrifice.

But the preciousness of this wooden slip is that it is not a scattered letter of congratulations, but a well-regulated letter of congratulations on victory!

This is very valuable for research!You must know that Tubo used wooden slips to record words in the Tang Dynasty.

For example, Chisong Detsan, who just succeeded to the throne, made his greatest contribution in his reign to revise and promulgate the law and formulate the system of "Nine Double Wooden Slips".

The "Nine Double Slips" include the "True Wisdom Five Slips", "Three Judgment Slips", "Three Trial Slips" and "Floating Slips".

It is very difficult to preserve the wooden slips, and the plateau has experienced many turmoil, and the remaining wooden slips are almost all fragments.

The wooden slip written by Soma is a complete report document, and its format and wording are in full compliance with the Tibetan wording norms at that time.

Cui Tao's mentor quickly translated the content on the wooden slip, and asked Cui Tao where the wooden slip came from.

Now Cui Tao can only tell his teacher about "The Wind and Cloud of the Tang Dynasty", so Cui Tao has another task, which is to exchange a game qualification for the tutor.

Soma looked at Cui Tao in despair, why does King Jianning still have people who can read Zhu Wen!

Soma finally felt the power of Datang!Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a small Shazhou Governor's Mansion!
Cui Tao cupped his hands and said to Li Yan: "Your Highness, please entrust this Tubo masterpiece to your subordinates."

Li Yan nodded and said, "Yes, can Leiyin Temple be convicted?"

Jiansi knelt on the ground and bumped his head against the ground, crying, "Convicted, guilty! Your Highness, spare me!"

Only Monk Ji Hu knelt on the ground, his expression still normal.

Li Yan asked: "The criminal monk Jihu, do you have anything to defend yourself?"

Putting the shackles together, Ji Hu clasped his hands together and said, "We died to promote Buddhism. After death, we will go to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss. There is no need to defend ourselves, but we want to die quickly."

Ji Hu looked at Li Yan and said: "Your Highness is so powerful, destroying temples and destroying Buddhas, isn't he afraid of going to Abi Hell after death and suffering eternal torture?"

Li Yan looked at Jihu's bald head, drew out his sword and said, "Leiyin Temple exploited the people, bewitched the believers to violate human relations, abandoned their families and careers, and donated to clay statues of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Are you paying homage to these gods and Buddhas? ?”

"If these gods and Buddhas have spirits, the lonely king will behead the Buddha's head in Leiyin Temple with his own hands, but I want to see how all the Buddhas in the sky are going to punish me!"
